Has anyone read books by...
| Sun, 05-29-2005 - 2:50pm |
Hi, I'm new here and I was just wondering if anyone here has read any of the books by Sylvia Browne? Would anyone here describe themselves as a Gnostic? I would really like to know what you think about them.. I started reading them about a year ago and I really like what she says.. I do what it says in her books "Take what you want and leave the rest behind".. but I find that I believe a lot of what she says in her books.. I'd really like to discuss this with some people that are interested in this... Thanks!

Hey you two! May I ask you, if you don't mind, to have the conversations here? I'm unfamiliar with this author & what she's saying, and would love to hear a discussion about it!
(I don't read books due to my vision impairment - just too much for the ole eyes!)
And welcome to you both!

Her basic simple message for all of us: Love.
I would love to get to know you all, this has become a passion of mine and I would like to have people to share things with. John Edward is very good also, and if I could recommend any books that leave you feeling incredibly good, is is James Van Praagh, Talking to Heaven, Return to Heaven, and Heaven and Earth. The messages for us in those books are remarkable. Again, it all boils down to love and God. Our loved ones who have passed are eternally happy and are waiting for us. I no longer fear death in any way. I feel such truth and faith in what Sylvia and the others have to say.
I am now reading "Prophecy", it is very good. Another person to read about is Edgar Cayce, he was an extraordinary medium who helped thousands of people.
I'm sorry if I'm not very eloquent, I do my best. :-)
Happy to be here and get to know you all, please ask me anything. I've just about read all of Sylvia's books now.

I've got so many books on my bookshelf that I haven't got round to reading lately and I keep buying more that I had to actually look through to check out if she was on there or not!! I know I haven't actually read any but I've definitely seen her in the book shops and I wasn't sure if I'd bought one or not. As it turned out I didn't have any of hers but will definitely consider adding her to my library soon.
Can I ask though what a Gnostic is? It sounds intriguing but I've never heard of it before.

Hi Stephanie!
Thanks for that explanation. It makes perfect sense to me now :-)

PS Welcome to the board
Cara Ivy, hi! Nice to meet someone on this "journey" also! Mine is about three years, I think, but I believe it may have started long ago in my childhood because I've always had a profound interest in the after life.
Another point of the Gnostic belief I really like is that no one is telling me to give them money, no one is saying don't drink this or do that, no one is telling me to do strange rituals to be able to enter Heaven. All I have to do is simply love God and love myself and others. It has really helped me with being judgemental and looking beyond a person's exterior and finding their real soul beneath.
The books I would recommend of Sylvia's that I have read are the Journey of the Soul series, there are three. They are very enlightening to me.

Take care all
